That is why the RC battery market needs new rating convention... we have no idea what they are basing the ratings on right now, whether it's a combination of temp, voltage, cell degradation, etc.

We need a simple "VOLTAGE RATING" not a C rating, that would be MUCH more informative. For example; at 25C discharge, the cells in this pack have an average voltage of '3.77v/cell'..... another brand on the same test: maybe it's 3.62v/cell

IIRC, back in the day of NiMH as King, brands used to print the "Voltage" right on each cell, based on a 25 amp discharge I think it was...
